उपास्महे प्राणं भूतपतिम् ऋतस्य पथिभिर्धिया
तन्नो देवा अनुमदन्तु यज्ञं सुवीर्यम्
Upasmahe Pranam Bhutapatim Ritasya Pathibhirdhiya
Tanno Deva Anumadantu Yajnam Suviryam
With illumined thought along the paths of Cosmic Order we worship Prana, lord of all animate and inanimate existence;
May the Gods rejoice in our sacrifice and grant us heroic spiritual strength.
